Soon, Jamie became pregnant again. It was hard to take care of Peter while under the stress of pregnancy, and even harder once his little brother Jason was born, but she did her best while Rich was hard at work all day. He was rising up the ranks of his career very quickly, gaining a promotion almost every day, but the catch was that he had almost no personal time to himself. He even dreamed about work!
It didn't help that, even on his days off, he couldn't get away from work. He was at the library one day, trying to relax, and a woman began to feel ill. Of course, with his advanced medical training, all he had to do was whip out some sort of device(what exactly it was we probably don't want to know) and he diagnosed her on the spot.
Even though they were once again starting to consider having more children, Jamie and Ric
h knew that having a third right now would be more than they could handle. They decided to put off having their third child until their youngest was nearing school age. At first, this sounded distant, but Jason was growing up quickly. He soon grew up from an infant into a toddler, and began to exhibit his own personality. Rich was somewhat disappointed that he didn't seem as intellectual as his brother, but Jamie was delighted by his musical tendencies - he loved to bang on the xylophone. Now that Peter and his brother could both amuse themselves, Rich found the time to complete his study of logic. Jamie, on the other hand, got some well-earned rest.
